FTH supported nonprofits for 2020

[fthmods]

Our list of supported organizations for 2020 can be found below. Like last year, we are concentrating on small organizations that are doing vital, unique work to protect persons and communities targeted by the 45 administration, and doing so on very small budgets. Like last year, we are giving creators the option of listing one additional organization of their choice to which bidders can donate, so long as it’s in line with the overall mission of FTH.

Check out our list of amazing supported organizations below! if you prefer to ask your bidders to support an organization that’s not on the list, please read our policy on outside organizations here.

Hi! I don't see Fair Vote on here, but it was mentioned in your FAQ post; are you still thinking of having it as an approved org?

Thanks!

Fixed! We also added in another voting-related one that got left off the list by accident: Spread the Vote. (It does make sense that this is where all our mistakes would be, though; election-related orgs was, by far, the most challenging part of the list for us.)

Hi! Just wondering if you know if any of these organisations can be donated to with Paypal, since that's the only payment option I have at the moment?

[fthmods]

Looking through receipts we've received in the past, it looks like Border Angels, the Young Center, Higher Heights, and RAINN were definitely accepting PayPal last year. It's possible that some of them have changed how they accept donations, though, and some of these are new since last year, so you might want to check the websites of the ones you're interested in. But it seems very likely that at least a few do!

Just checked, and currently the only ones accepting Paypal from the list are Fair Vote, Higher Heights and RAINN, alas.

FairVote does for sure, I just donated to them that way.
